Link Task to a Record in the System
This feature enables users to link a task to a specific record within a specific module in the system, allowing them to track the task progress and navigate directly to the linked record when needed.
Before You Start
- Ensure that the Task Management app is enabled through Apps Manager by navigating to Settings from the main menu.
- This action is available in all task statuses: To Do, In Progress, and Completed.
Steps
- From the main menu, click Task Management.
- Click Tasks.
- Click on the required task from the Task List.
- Click Link Module in the Actions bar at the top of the Task Details screen.
- A window appears containing two fields: Target Module (pre-filled with the module selected when the task was created) and Record (a searchable drop-down list).
- To find the required record, you can search by the record name or code, paste a copied name or code, select from the suggested results, or select from recently created records within the selected module.
- Select the required record, then click Save.
How the System Works
- The Target Module field is automatically generated with the module selected when the task was created.
- The Record list supports searching by name or code, pasting copied text, selecting from suggested results, and displaying recently created records within the selected module.
- When the record selection is confirmed, the Record Code is linked to the task, and the Module navigation link becomes active and clickable to navigate directly to the record.
- This action is available regardless of the current task status. It works when the task is To Do, In Progress, or Completed, unlike Re-Assign, which is not available when the task is completed.
Validation Rules
- The available Module options depend on the modules previously enabled from the Linked Module Configuration screen.
